Okay, so shirts: "Althouse Hillbilly," "Professor Althouse deleted me once," etc.It is funny that most of the conservative posters here seem to blithely wave off all of the vile quotes that Sullivan links to but if I write "Althouse Hillbillies" many of these same right wing Jethros get all lathered up about THAT!
Now I want an "Althouse Hillbilly" t-shirt.
Professor Althouse deleted me once. ...
My Dad always told us we was from the hills. Now I want an "Althouse Hillbilly" t-shirt.
Me too!

Maybe I should set up an Althouse on-line store...

The first "deleted" T-Shirt will go to Mr. Cohen, right?
I remember this meme from previous threads. I don't think it is as devastating as its creators obviously do.
Just remember, Althouse, they are talking about you, not the other way around (except for right now).
Business empires have started from less. You can have "Proud to be an Althouse Hillbilly" and "I Can't Stand Althouse Hillbillies" T-shirts and sell to both sides.
You could be the Krupp of the blogosphere.

I'll take one of each.
I just googled the words Althouse hillbillies and clicked images. Pretty interesting juxtaposition.
Then, for fun, I googled althouse hillbillies boobs nude. That's even better. Safe search off, of course.
I suggest you solicit designs from the usual suspects, hold a fair election, and go into business. Draw up a legal contract splitting the IP rights, and teach the blogosphere how to run an online busines.

Devastating? Well, hardly. Just a gentle jest. Hard for Machos to understand, as liberals don't do gentle jests.
"I Was Deleted By Althouse and All I Got Was This Lousy Hillbilly T-shirt"
No Lee we don't get lathered up, by you anyway, but we do enjoy your comments. You don't get it and everytime you type out something, it shows how easily you can get suckered and how little sense of humor you have.
Althouse Hillbillies endorsed by you, A Law Professor
Ann,
I'd be happy to help you set this up. A shop featuring T-shirts with your photographs and witticisms on them could be up and running in about 30 minutes.
"I'm With Deleted ➘"
I'm an Althouse Hillbilly
and on the obverse:
Y'all hear that?
WV- dedat - Alhouse Hillbilly for the date, as in:
Dedat is 'tober 8th.
I believe in Guns, God and Althouse
And on the obverse:
That makes me a Hillbilly
WV- dransec- Althouse Hillbilly for please wait; as in:
Hold on a dransec, will ya?
I'd like one with an accusatory "YOU!!!" on the front
"and I" on the back in smaller letters.
I'd want a custom one.
Meade's shirt should read:
Althouse Hillbilly
You can pry Althouse from my cold, dead fingers.
I want one that says "I am 'Big Mike'." Light blue lettering on red. Size 2XL.
What's that, garage? You want to send an "I'm with Stupid" T-shirt to my wife? Why would you want to do that?
How about "What do I have to do to get an Althouse tag?"
I want a pair of Althouse man shorts with the word ALTHOUSE printed across the ass.
Althouse Commentariat
^ I want one
WV Punster
^ One of those too
I want a chip ahoy animated T
Brought to you by the double-naught-spy level intellect of L.E. Lee.

Now that there is funny.
At one point she was going to do a CD and at another sell scribbles. But it never happens. Don't you people see how she's jerking us around?
I want to see a t-shirt with an Andy Warhol version of her portrait and another where she's dressed up like The Little Tramp.
Take it to the House! on the front.

I usually wear a suit all the time.. but i guess i can keep one as a momento ;)
"my other t shirt is a suit"
I sell promotional products, including tee shirts. I would be more than willing to help design the shirts and help promote them.
I got tagged by Althouse and liked it.
Remember those Who Is John Galt? bumper stickers?
How about a tee shirt that says Who Is Althouse
Or my fav: Co-fucking-exist.
Oh yeah, the Who Is Althouse? shirt should have and egg salad sandwich on it.
If you go with a Titus album,
"Fully Mature Hog in the Garden of Pubes" might work.
I'm still fantasizing about the Titus spoken word album...
I can see it too done right: Henry Rollins style over some tasteful musical background...now that could fly!

Art is Carney.
I want a hoodie with a Raggedy Ann doll printed on it with Althouse's head substituted.
Or
"I was tagged by Althouse
naner naner naner"
Hey! It's snowing! Boy, I got those tomatoes inside just in time. Whew.
How about these proposed t-shirts:
I knew Meade before he married Althouse
I knew Meade before he was a commentator at Althouse
Althouse is to Instapundit as Joan Rivers was to The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson
Keeping Madison sane for at least a couple of years
How about a shirt that has all the little atvars and logos of Althouse commentators?
I wish Titus showed us those little football stadium drawings he used to do as a kid. Perhaps he was just making it up, but I think he was being honest. They sounded interesting.
OK, how about this:
"You got a purty mouth..."
-Sully
I think that covers all bases.
I could probably get one that said "I Have Been Deleted More Than Anyone Else on Althouse...and all I got was this t shirt.
Now I want an "Althouse Hillbilly" t-shirt.
Those have been around for a long time.
Try "Tagged at AnnAlthouseBlog and lived"
Althouse Hillbilly. I'm for that.
First thing you know
Old Ann's a millionaire
Kinfolks'll say Ann
Move away from there
Cable TV is the place you ought to be
So she'll load up the pack
And move to Beverly
Hills, that is,
Swimming Pools,
Coffee bars.
Mine would need to be a fitted t size small to accentuate my guns, natch.
I do have a t that says, "Massachusetts Liberal".
And another one that says "Wide Stance".
And a Kennedy t natch.
I once owned
a CD of William S. Burroughs reading his own writing over tracks by The Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy. It really starts about 30 seconds in.
I could definitely see Titus doing something like that.
Has anyone watched the episode of The Queef Sisters on South Park.
God I love them.
OMG, Annie Hall is on TCM.
Love Diane Keaton, she is from Chippewa Falls, Wi in the movie-I think it is this move.
Love Chippewa Falls and Leinenkugel.

I'd cast my vote for "You, a law professor ..."
I watched My dinner with Althouse and all I got was this t shirt.
I wouldn't gravitate to get a shirt based on one commentor' stupid, dated jibe "Althouse readers are hillbillies".
But perhaps something more in keeping with the spirit Ann has brought to her Blog:
Althouse: Into the Vortex!
Althouse: Finest Breast Commentary
Althousian Law - It's Fun!
Or perhaps Althouse might consider T-shirts with what she thinks are her 5 favorite Photos. "Images by Althouse".
And she has had some rather delicious "teasers" in Red as her stated blog topic.
Much, much to work with....
If she was just blogging photograhy, she'd have a ton of things that might go on T-shirts.
Law? Same.
Other topics? Rich fodder for crass commercialization!!
"All your base are belong to Althouse"
a classic.
"Titus was here"
Photog714 wrote: Those have been around for a long time.
WTF? Are those really for sale?
I do expect royalties from this commercial endeavor. I have learned from past experiences; specifically ghost writing "Dreams of My Father."
The first pic of Althouse I saw she was using it as her avatar. it was a closup and she was like looking down but from the side and it was all in one color i think.
anyway, it was a really good shot of her.
I've looked for it but i cant find it.
There is a great Kinks album from the early 70s called Muswell Hillbillies. Perhpas Ann could approach Ray Davies about doing a follow up Althouse Hillbillies.
I think a simple t-shirt that says "My Dinner With Althouse" would work well.
Please stop ragging on hillbillies.
Thanks, The Ozarks
If Ann just wears each shirt for a night, they would sell like used panties. Hmmmm...
Switch Bart's face with Althouse.
"If Ann just wears each shirt for a night, they would sell like used panties. Hmmmm...'
That is funny. But really disgusting. But really funny.
"I Pinched A Loaf" on Althouse's Blog.
When you have a great name, you just need to go with it.
Althouse is one of those names.
Before I heard there was an Ann Althouse, I thought "alternative house". And it really has proved to be that.
May I suggest the following:
althouse dot calm
Yeah, yeah I know it isn't always calm here, but everyone loves surprises.
Oh, and one more thing, may I suggest that the t-shirts have a washed out look. I think they call it "heathered" at LL Bean. Some may think of it as colors that have been dusted. For example, heather blue, heather green or dusty red or dusty purple.
They may be pricier, but ever more tasteful...as is our hostess.
Althhouse Hillbilly.
Comment like a pig.
Any t-shirt should feature this picture of Ann.

Don't you have to actually feel insulted before you can claim a word/label? I thought that was the rule.
As for a shirt:
-You came for the egg salad, but you'll stay for the onion rings
I want a pair of Althouse man shorts with the word ALTHOUSE printed across the ass.
Don't forget the matching sandals.
I want this September 15, 2006 post title on my Althouse tee:
"Let's take a closer look at those breasts."
All in all, this is pretty funny.
Have you noticed that those who came forward early to say they can do these t-shirts for a dime in week, have backed off as each of us add our unique two cents to the cost of the tee?
Clearly this is not a government operation! lol
The Horror!
The image of Althouse sitting in a rocking chair(video @4:15) on top of a beat-up old truck just popped into my head.
wv - "triallyz" = what John Edwards spoke in a courtroom
LOL, Funny thread!
I want an official Althouse merkin.
an official Althouse merkin.
I'm pretty sure we're all 'merkins here. Real live nephews (and nieces) of our Uncle Sam.
@ pogo and tman --
"And you, a Law Professor"
(has to be capitalized)
Also like "Tagged at Althouse.com"
and variations of that.
The deletecd at Althouse will be rarer. But the problem with those would then be that some of the commenters might go out to their way(s) to get deleted, which would definitely affect the quality of the comments, not to mention pressure the Blogessor.
Lots of fun ideas, actually. Cafe Press here we come ... get whoever said they'd help on board.
But wait!!! The most superb Althouse shirt would be a Chip shirt with a pop up!! I want one of those!
I'm a proud Jewish Althouse Hillbilly.

Why would anyone want a "You, a Law Professor!" T-Shirt? Second person doesn't work very well in T-Shirts (or fiction).
"Me! A Law Professor!", however, might be marketable.
I proposed a large
"YOU!!!"
on the front to serve as the pared down version of "and You, a Law Professor".
It would also cover the tone of the accusations, finger pointing, and immature name calling often offered up as commentary.
The addition of "and I" on the back would add the missing relational element and perspective necessary for healthy conversation and comment.
It's not funny, but it would reflect the style of conversation used to attack rather than convey, illumine, share or give someone pause for thought.
Hiding behind every accusatory "YOU!!!" is an "I" --most likely a small agnry "i" defending a personal opinion or feeling they are afraid to directly and openly express.
"i" know, because I frequently feel wary myself, slowly learning to add and express the "and I" part, often at the end of the comments. While it takes me a while to find my thought and express it, it also feels safer to chime in when the the heat is off.
For me, the phrase "You!!! and I" expresses the essence of this blog, where a private relational exchange of opinion between reader and writer is allowed and invited to take place in a semi-public arena.
What are the criteria for being a hillbilly? Appalachian or Ozark origins?
If so, my folk are pwt from central Louisiana, so my proximity to Appalachia and love of fly fishing there disqualify me.
But who is closer to a hillbilly than I?
Trey
It looks like the CafePress /Althouse shop is already taken. Maybe /AlthouseBlog or AlthouseLawProf would work?
